Okefenokee Swamp Park
Okefenokee Swamp Park, Waycross, Georgia.
The next day it was still raining, and it rained all day. Normal people would have stayed indoors.
But no ... we drove up to Georgia, to the Okefenokee Swamp.
The Okefenokee Swamp is a shallow, 438,000-acre, peat-filled wetland straddling the Georgia-Florida line in the United States. A majority of the swamp is protected by the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge and the Okefenokee Wilderness. The Okefenokee Swamp is considered to be one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Georgia and is the largest blackwater swamp in North America.
The swamp was designated a National Natural Landmark in 1974.
As a child, I heard so many tales about the Okefenokee Swamp ... people getting lost in it ... it was a place I had always wanted to visit.
